Harvest Trail Mix

A Heart-Healthy Desserts & Snacks Recipe

 

It may take some sleuthing at your local natural foods store to find all the ingredients for this trail mix, but it's well worth the effort. On days when I'm busy seeing patients, I've been known to eat a large helping of this mix as my lunch. Make sure to choose organic nuts and seeds whenever they're available.

  • Almonds
  • Dry-roasted soybeans
  • Dates
  • Dried apples
  • Dried cranberries
  • Peanuts
  • Pumpkin seeds
  • Raisins
  • Sunflower seeds
  • Walnuts

Mix ingredients together in roughly equal proportions and store in an airtight container. Use within a month, because the oils in nuts can go rancid. One serving equals 2 ounces.

About Dr. Sinatra

Dr. Stephen SinatraMy Approach To Total Wellness 

As an integrative cardiologist, I prefer to treat heart disease with the best mix of conventional and alternative medicine techniques. And I've found over the years that this healing approach—which sometimes means relying on pharmaceutical drugs and high-tech equipment and at other times includes lifestyle modifications and nutritional therapies—helps my patients to achieve optimal overall health as well.
